Rock, Paper, Scissors

When I first read the title Rock, Paper, Scissors, I thought it is very interesting to have a book title that way. It made me remember my childhood when I used to play Jack 'en Poy with the other kids. Having said that, I  also became curious what does this game got to do with mathematics? In the books Rock, Paper, Scissors by Dr. Len Fisher, he focused on the "science of cooperation" which will make a person really think hard and ponder upon. Fisher showed how the game theory helped the scientists, especially the biologists, comprehend the developments of cooperation in our environment and learn how we can adapt these things in our daily lives. With experiments that made him discover things in dinner parties, supermarkets, Indian roads, and Australia, he also discovered about the baseball strategies and the specifics of quantum mechanics. The findings are sometimes funny, and most of the times disturbing. Reading Rock, Paper, Scissors by Dr. Len Fisher made me understand a lot of environmental and global issues in the society. It made me understand people's role in the society.
